Drawing Inside

Story of a Custom picture

KerrieAnn contact me in August, she wanted to offer a geat gift for a newlywed couple. I start to slow down my custom productions, i still keep open the door for works here and there with max of 2-3 cutom orders per month. Custom artworks give me great ideas and suggestions for my next work.

So i did take the order and started recently the drawing.... and here are all the things i've discovered :

Broadstairs : Sea view in the Kent

I can say it : i don't know the great Britain geography vey much ! So i discovered that Kent is at the East of London area and is close to the sea. This is where is Broadstairs !And if you pass by this town you should try this restaurant : The Verreys, inspired by a famous restaurant on Regent street ,London in the 1850s. The english breakfast picture is from this Café Kitchen. And i love Baked Beans !

Charles Dickens and the Verrey

After my discovery of the lovely town of Broadstairs, Kent, Great Britain. I also made some research anout Mr Charles Dickens who used to go in this restaurant.He wrote a Christmas Carol and Oliver Twist. He was also contemporary of Edward the seventh (i also know very few things about British kings...)

A christmas Carol by charles Dickens and Edward 7

English Breakfast

Verreys propose some delicious meals and the sunday Roast is allready famous in Broadstairs.sausages comes form the local butcher (hazel butchers), eggs are free range eggs made by local Kent's chickens, and baked beans are from great britain. Add some mushrooms and roasted tomatoes and it's a great breakfast to enjoy.

I used to eat that kind of breakfast when i lived in Belfast... every saturday and i remember waiting 3p.m to start eating again...

thanks kerriean for all theses discovery ! Hope the couple will like their picture as well - it's a Xmas gift so don't say a word until the 25th of december !
